About the Role

The Role You'll run full-cycle recruitment for complex IT positions across European markets, working directly with client stakeholders to shape hiring strategies. The hard part: balancing competing priorities across multiple clients, each with their own urgency, technical depth, and hiring bar. This isn't assembly-line recruiting — you'll need to understand engineering domains deeply enough to be a credible partner to CTOs and VPs of Engineering. About the Company Newxel builds dedicated R&D teams for tech companies worldwide, with 260+ specialists across Europe. The model is long-term strategic partnerships, not body-shopping. Teams are built to last, which means hiring quality matters more than speed, and every bad hire is a partnership risk, not just a backfill. What You'll Be Doing
  • Own end-to-end hiring for senior and niche engineering roles across multiple client accounts simultaneously
  • Partner with client stakeholders to define role profiles, calibrate expectations, and push back when requirements are unrealistic
  • Prepare market intelligence — salary benchmarks, candidate availability maps, competitor hiring activity — and use it to shape client conversations
  • Work closely with the Talent Sourcing Team to prioritize pipelines and adjust sourcing strategies when market signals change
  • Coordinate with the TA Lead and Customer Success on cross-account prioritization and resource allocation
  • Continuously refine assessment methods — screening frameworks, technical evaluation criteria, interview structures — based on actual hiring outcomes
  • Own the candidate experience from first touch to offer acceptance, ensuring consistency and professionalism at every stage
What We Expect

Must-have

  • 4+ years of full-cycle IT recruiting in outstaffing or product companies — not staffing agencies, not generalist HR
  • Deep understanding of software engineering roles, tech stacks, and how R&D teams are structured — enough to have a real conversation with a hiring manager about architectural decisions
  • Advanced English (spoken and written) and professional Polish — both are daily working languages
  • Market knowledge across Poland, Portugal, Romania, and adjacent talent markets
  • Ability to shift between strategic advisory (shaping a client's hiring approach) and tactical execution (screening 15 candidates in a day)
  • Experience navigating competing priorities in an international environment

Nice to have

  • Familiarity with data-driven recruitment practices and AI-assisted sourcing tools
  • Existing network in Polish or broader CEE tech communities
Why This Role Is Worth Your Time
  • Full remote from Poland with real autonomy — no micromanagement, no tracking software, no performative Slack presence
  • A team that treats recruiting as a strategic function, not a service desk
  • Direct access to AI-powered sourcing and analytics tools that most TA teams only read about
  • Competitive comp with insurance, 20 days PTO, paid sick leave, and national holidays
